No one in Boston gives two shites about BC. I mean...they aren't even located in Boston. Chestnut Hill College seems like a more appropriate name considering their athletic performance and fan-base (which both scream Division 2). 07-coffee3

Dich Conn gives UConn fans grey hairs, he rarely provides educational insight and usually acts with a high degree of pomposity. How could I not care about BC football if their head coach was in a couple of my classes at CCSU and wanted me to play football there but I couldn't because I was sick.
I agree with Husky that Boston mainly cares about pro sports..

I am guessing bc won't be this bad forever. But 0-26 would cause me to not watch uconn for a while...it's just not acceptable. What good is money when you can't even stand to watch your team play...

Imagine if UMass had D1 football at the time. BC would still likely be in this conference still

BC should get demoted down to the FCS level with how pathetic they've been, and they will still lose if they do when they face NDSU and Jacksonville State.

RE: OT: And the ACC Took BC, Why?
Serious answer. BC was good at the time and the Doug Flutie Hail Mary game was still pretty fresh in peoples memories. Still, I'm not 100% sure that BC was a first choice. I'm certain that Miami and Cuse were both approached and all but gone. Pitt may have been asked, but declined as well. I just don't have the time to look it all up to refresh my memory.

To be fair to BC, NONE of the schools targeted by the ACC have panned out very well. Granted, Cuse and Pitt haven't had much time to prove themselves. By far the best results have come from VT and Ville. Neither of whom were target schools. VT was forced upon the ACC to get the UVa vote. Ville was a last minute, desperation move after UMd left for the BIG.

The BC move has been a complete bust. Without playing its traditional rivals, BC went into a total tail spin. The only thing having BC did for the ACC was to allow for a football CCG.

And what's sad is that they were much better than their records, especially in football where at one point they were giving up about 6 points per game on defense.

A lot of criticism in this post. Thoughts on Big 10 taking Rutgers and how its worked so far?

Criticism and misinformation. I was going to correct him, but he's a Rutgers fan. They don't do well with facts.

OT: And the ACC Took BC, Why?
So many idiotic comments here. Here are a few facts to consider:

-In the 12 seasons BCFB has played in the ACC, it has had 9 winning seasons. It's FB games are carried on NESN, New England's premier cable network. Its core market is the 8th largest in the Country.

-Having Uconn fans come on here to diss BC is a bit amusing, since Uconn FB has not had a winning season in now FIVE FRIGGIN YEARS and BC FB's average attendance is HIGHER than Uconn's pretty much every year. (If you think this is solely because of the teams that BC plays, check out Uconn's home attendance when they hosted then #12 Houston this past season.). I am not being critical here of Uconn FB- only how delusional some of their fanboys are.

Look, it was a bad year in FB for BC. Nobody's denying that. It was a very young team and it had injuries to its starting QB, RB, wide receivers, and offensive line. Despite all this, it was in every game it played and lost FIVE games by 3 points or less. This season, most of their elite defense is back and the offense will be a whole lot better. Look for BC to get back to its winning ways next year.

If I were a Uconn fan, I would be a whole lot more worried about facing a vastly improved and totally pissed off BC FB team next year at Alumni.

MBB is a other story and will take longer to recover. But recover it will!

Seriously, does a siren go off in your home whenever somebody posts anything about BC? Go back to the ACC board, and take that clown Wilkie with you!! 05-mafia

I'm convinced Clairton Panther is sending these clowns over here because some Temple fans were defending their school over on the ACC board. He shut that thread down, but refuses to put a leash on Wilkie and Eagle.

Fine...pretty telling, though, that you didn't dispute the facts I outlined. Probably because, as has been said, "facts are stubborn things".
